RESUMEN

Background: Mini Implants are widely used in contemporary orthodontics, they provide skeletal anchorage even in non-compliant patients, facilitate orthodontic tooth movement, are easy to place and are relatively inexpensive. Their failure is multifactorial, and the quality of the soft tissue can present a risk limitation for the insertion of TADS. Orthodontic Mini Implants inserted in keratinized gingiva present fewer tissue-related complications and higher survival rate, than those inserted in non-keratinized mucosa. The purpose of this report is to present and describe this novel technique to modify and enhance the peri-implant mucosa of Orthodontic Mini Implants inserted in nonkeratinized gingiva. Methods: A free gingival graft was harvested from the palate in combination with a buccal recipient site preparation in the alveolar mucosa and a TAD insertion procedure. Results: After twenty-one days of healing, graft integration was observed. One hundred and eighty days after insertion and twelve weeks of loading, none to mild signs of clinical inflammation were documented, and the patient reported no pain or discomfort. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this report, free gingival grafting for phenotype modification of the peri-implant mucosa, can benefit patients who need insertion of orthodontic mini-implants in non-keratinized mucosa for orthodontic tooth movement.

RESUMEN

Introducción. La atresia o estrechez del maxilar superior es una patología de origen multifactorial que genera un colapso transversal, el mismo e implica la carencia de espacio necesario para la disposición correcta de las piezas dentales. Objetivo. El presente artículo está enmarcado en una revisión narrativa de la literatura, con el objetivo de describir el abordaje terapéutico del colapso transversal del maxilar superior con microimplantes (TAD´s), determinando los efectos esqueléticos y dentoalveolares en el maxilar superior, así como las ventajas y desventajas del tratamiento. Método. La búsqueda de artículos se realizó a través de mediante las plataformas de: Scielo, PubMed, Google Académico y Medline. Se seleccionaron 21 artículos cuyos textos completos fueron descargados para examinarlos a detalle y verificar que cumplieran con todos los criterios de inclusión, de los cuales se obtuvieron 16 artículos para elaborar esta revisión narrativa. Conclusiones. El abordaje terapéutico del colapso transversal se produce por medio de la expansión rápida del maxilar (ERM) o disyunción maxilar, en pacientes jóvenes en crecimiento; y en los pacientes adultos se suele emplear un tratamiento con técnica MARPE con microimplantes (TAD´s). El principal efecto esquelético es la apertura de la sutura maxilar que varía de 2 a 10 mm, muchos autores coinciden en que el manejo del colapso transversal del maxilar superior con microimplantes no genera efectos dentoalveolares negativos, al contrario, tiene ventajas biomecánicas debido al anclaje con el hueso, reduciendo el riesgo de movimiento dentales indeseados y permitiendo un control del crecimiento vertical.


Introduction. The atresia or narrowness of the upper jaw is a pathology of multifactorial origin that generates a transverse collapse, it implies the lack of space necessary for the correct arrangement of the dental pieces. Objective. This article is framed in a narrative review of the literature, with the aim of describing the therapeutic approach of transverse maxillary collapse with microimplants (TAD's), determining the skeletal and dentoalveolar effects in the maxilla, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of treatment. Method. The search for articles was carried out through the following platforms: Scielo, PubMed, Google Scholar and Medline. 21 articles whose full texts were downloaded were selected to examine them in detail and verify that they met all the inclusion criteria, of which 18 articles were obtained to prepare this narrative review. Conclusions. The therapeutic approach to transverse collapse occurs through rapid maxillary expansion (RME) or maxillary disjunction, in young growing patients; and in adult patients, treatment with the MARPE technique with microimplants (TAD's) is usually used. The main skeletal effect is the opening of the maxillary suture, which varies from 2 to 10 mm. Many authors agree that the management of the transverse collapse of the maxilla with microimplants does not generate negative dentoalveolar effects, on the contrary, it has biomechanical advantages due to the anchorage with the bone, reducing the risk of unwanted dental movement and allowing control of vertical growth.

RESUMEN

The genome tridimensional (3D) organization and its role towards the regulation of key cell processes such as transcription is currently a main question in biology. Interphase chromosomes are spatially segregated into "territories," epigenetically-defined large domains of chromatin that interact to form "compartments" with common transcriptional status, and insulator-flanked domains called "topologically associating domains" (TADs). Moreover, chromatin organizes around nuclear structures such as lamina, speckles, or the nucleolus to acquire a higher-order genome organization. Due to recent technological advances, the different hierarchies are being solved. Particularly, advances in microscopy technologies are shedding light on the genome structure at multiple levels. Intriguingly, more and more reports point to high variability and stochasticity at the single-cell level. However, the functional consequences of such variability in genome conformation are still unsolved. Here, I will discuss the implication of the cell-to-cell heterogeneity at the different scales in the context of newly developed imaging approaches, particularly multiplexed Fluorescence in situ hybridization methods that enabled "chromatin tracing." Extensions of these methods are now combining spatial information of dozens to thousands of genomic loci with the localization of nuclear features such as the nucleolus, nuclear speckles, or even histone modifications, creating the fast-moving field of "spatial genomics." As our view of genome organization shifts the focus from ensemble to single-cell, new insights to fundamental questions begin to emerge.

RESUMEN

Introducción: El tratamiento quirúrgico de las fracturas intertrocantericas presenta complicaciones postquirúrgicas múltiples debido a varios factores, el índice punta-ápex o "TAD" es uno de los principales predictores del desanclaje del tornillo femoral o "cut out". Objetivo: Realizar una revisión bibliográfica del "TAD" en los estudios científicos más actuales. Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo de búsqueda bibliografíca en páginas científicas como Scielo, Elsevier, Pubmed, Medline y bibliotecas virtuales nacionales e internacionales. Resultados: Las fracturas intertrocantericas representan el 50% de todas las fracturas del fémur proximal, mayor incidencia en mujeres (2:1 hasta 8:1) y personas mayores de 65 años, las complicaciones postquirúrgicas representan el 17%, el desanclaje de tornillo o "cut out" se describe como la complicación más común. El "TAD" es usado desde 1995; la migración del tornillo deslizante en la cabeza femoral se observa inclusive en pacientes con TAD menor de 25 mm, debido a la implicancia de factores (asociados al implante, mal posicionamiento del tornillo deslizante y mala calidad ósea), dando un umbral óptimo del TAD más bajo (<20 mm) que el corte tradicional(<25 mm); por cada milímetro que aumenta el TAD, el riesgo de corte aumenta aproximadamente 1.1. El TAD presenta una especificidad significativamente mayor que el CalTAD y TAD + CalTAD (59.1 vs 49.2%, p <0.001; 59.1 vs 54.1%, p <0,001). Conclusiones: El "TAD", sigue siendo el mayor predictor de "cut out" en la actualidad inclusive por encima de los nuevos predictores. (AU)


Introduction: Surgical treatment of intertrochanteric fractures involves multiple post-surgical complications due to several factors. The tip-apex distance or "TAD" is one of the main predictors of femoral screw displacement or "cutout". Objective: perform a bibliographic review of the "TAD" in the most current scientific studies. Materials and methods: Descriptive study of bibliographic searches in scientific sites such as Scielo, Elsevier, Pubmed, Medline and national and international virtual libraries. Results: Intertrochanteric fractures account for 50% of all fractures of the proximal femur, higher incidence in women (2:1 to 8:1) and people over 65 years, post-surgical complications account for 17%, screw displacement or "cutout" is described as the most common complication. The TAD has been used since 1995; migration of the sliding screw in the femoral head is observed even in patients with a cut out of less than 25 mm, due to the implication of factors (associated with the implant, poor positioning of the sliding screw and poor bone quality), giving an optimal threshold of cut out lower (<20 mm) than the traditional cut out (<25 mm); for every millimeter that the cut out increases, the risk of cut out increases approximately 1.1. TAD has a significantly higher specificity than CalTAD y TAD + CalTAD (59.1 vs 49.2%, p <0.001; 59.1 vs 54.1%, p <0,001). Conclusions: The "TAD", is still the biggest predictor of "cut out" at present even above the new predictors. (AU)

RESUMEN

Resumo Ao longo do tempo, os caninos impactados sempre se apresentaram como um grande desafio para os ortodontistas. Sendo assim diferentes técnicas cirúrgicas são citadas na literatura, variando desde as mais invasivas até as mais conservadoras. O diagnóstico, planejamento cirúrgico e técnica de tracionamento fazem parte dos três principais pilares para se obter um bom prognóstico, quando se trata de tracionamento de caninos impactados. Dentre os procedimentos cirúrgicos encontrados na literatura, pode-se destacar a técnica VISTA, que apresenta uma característica menos invasiva dentre as técnicas de tracionamento de caninos impactos. (AU)

RESUMEN

Resumen El objetivo de este estudio consistió en comprobar la capacidad de predicción del apoyo a la autonomía del docente en educación física, las necesidades psicológicas básicas y la motivación autodeterminada sobre la diversión, la importancia e intención hacia la educación física y la actividad física habitual. Se empleó una muestra de 718 estudiantes (346 chicos y 372 chicas) con edades comprendidas entre los 13 y los 19 años (M = 15,76, DT = 1,20). Se midió el apoyo a la autonomía, las necesidades psicológicas básicas, la motivación, la diversión, la importancia de la educación física, la intencionalidad para ser físicamente activo y la actividad física habitual. Se realizaron análisis estadísticos descriptivos y las correlaciones bivariadas de todas las variables objeto de estudio, análisis factoriales confirmatorios de los instrumentos y un análisis mediante el modelo de regresión estructural. Los resultados revelaron relaciones positivas y significativas entre todas las variables. Así, el apoyo a la autonomía predijo positivamente la satisfacción de las necesidades psicológicas básicas, y esta, a su vez, predijo la motivación autodeterminada, que predijo la diversión. La diversión predijo la importancia concedida a la educación física, y esta la intención de ser físicamente activo, que finalmente predijo la tasa de actividad física habitual. Los resultados contribuyen a optimizar el compromiso de los jóvenes hacia la actividad física, tanto dentro como fuera del aula.


Abstract The objective of this study was to check the prediction capacity of teacher's autonomy support in physical education, basic psychological needs and motivation self-determined about fun, importance and intention towards physical education and the usual physical activity. Participated a sample of 718 students (346 boys and 372 girls) with ages between 13 and 19 years (M = 15.76, SD = 1.20). Autonomy support perceived, basic psychological needs, motivation, fun, the importance of Physical education, intentionality to be physically active and habitual physical activity was measured. A descriptive statistical analyzes and bivariate correlations of all the variables object of study, confirmatory factor analyzes of the instruments and an analysis through the structural regression model was performed. The results revealed a positive and significant relationship between all the variables. Thus, the autonomy support positively predicted the satisfaction of the basic psychological needs, and this, in turn, predicted self-determined motivation, which predicted fun the fun, that predicted the importance given to physical education, and it the intention to be physically active, which finally predicted the usual physical activity rate. The results help to optimize the commitment of young people to physical activity, both inside and outside the classroom.

RESUMEN

Dysfunctional p53 formation and activity can result from aberrant expression and subcellular localization of distinct p53 isoforms or aggregates. Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is a cancer type in which p53 status is correlated with prognosis, and TP53 mutations are a frequent genetic modification. Here we aimed to evaluate the expression patterns of different p53 isoforms and their contributions to the formation and subcellular localization of p53 amyloid aggregates in both EC and endometrial nontumor cell lines. We found that full-length (fl) p53 and a truncated p53 isoform, Δ40p53, resulting from alternative splicing of exon 2 or alternative initiation of translation at ATG-40, are the predominantly expressed p53 variants in EC cells. However, Δ40p53 was the major p53 isoform in endometrial nontumor cells. Immunofluorescence assays revealed that Δ40p53 is mainly localized to cytoplasmic punctate structures of EC cells, resembling solid-phase structures similar to those found in neurodegenerative pathologies. Using light-scattering kinetics, CD, and transmission EM, we noted that the p53 N-terminal transactivation domain significantly reduces aggregation of the WT p53 DNA-binding domain, confirming the higher aggregation tendency of Δ40p53, which lacks this domain. This is the first report of cytoplasmic Δ40p53 in EC cells being a major component of amyloid aggregates. The differential aggregation properties of p53 isoforms in EC cells may open up new avenues in the development of therapeutic strategies that preferentially target specific p53 isoforms to prevent p53 amyloid aggregate formation.

RESUMEN

The aim of this case report was to demonstrate the effects of the Maxillary Skeletal Expander (MSE) used to orthopedically correct a maxillary constriction, on the respiratory functions and swimming performance of a Para-athlete. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images taken before and after MSE activation were used to demonstrate the disarticulation of midpalatal suture, and the changes involved in dental and nasomaxillary structures, nasal cavity and pharyngeal airway. Respiratory tests included: maximum inspiratory and expiratory pressure, oral peak expiratory flow and inspiratory nasal flow. The 6-min-walk and heart rate recovery tests were also performed. Patient's swimming performances during national swimming competitions were compared. CBCT images showed that palatal expansion was 5.91  mm at the suture, and that nasal and pharyngeal airways increased in volume by 31%. All respiratory indices improved after MSE activation. The 6-min walk test and heart rate recovery test performance also improved after the maxillary expansion. Patient's swimming performance in all category were anemic prior to the treatment, but performance improved considerably after the expansion, particularly the 100 m-Backstroke modality. MSE treatment had a significant positive impact in respiratory functions and sport performance.

RESUMEN

Pasteurella multocida is a Gram-negative bacillus that causes economic losses due to the development of respiratory diseases in several animal species. Among the mechanisms of virulence, the formation of biofilms is an important factor for bacterial survival in hostile environments. Studies of biofilm formation by P. multocida are needed because P. multocida is an important pathogen involved in respiratory infections. However, in contrast to other microorganisms, few studies of biofilm formation have examined P. multocida. Studies comparing the pathogenicity of microbial strains as a function of their biofilm production capacity are also rare. Consequently, the aim of this study was to evaluate the biofilm formation capacity of 94 P. multocida strains isolated from cases of fowl cholera and from swine lungs on polystyrene plates. The associations of the biofilm formation capacity with the pathogenicity index (PI) in vivo and with the presence of four genes (screened by PCR) of the tad locus (tadB, tadD, tadE and tadG), described as adhesion markers, were also determined. Strains from both animal origins were able to form biofilms. However, most of the specimens (52.13%) were classified as weak producers, and more than 40% of the strains of P. multocida (40.42%) did not produce biofilms. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) in the degree of biofilm production between the two sources of isolation. Of the analyzed strains, 56.52% contained all four genes (tadB, tadD, tadE and tadG). The PI arithmetic mean of the strains classified as non-biofilm producers was significantly different (p<0.05) from the PI of moderate-producer strains. The PI of specimens classified as weak biofilm producers also differed significantly (p<0.05) from that of the moderate-producer strains. The results indicate that even though the P. multocida strains isolated from cases of fowl cholera and swine lungs formed biofilms on polystyrene surfaces, adhesion was usually weak. The genes tadB, tadD, tadE and tadG were not significantly associated (p>0.05) with the production of biofilms and with the origin of a given strain. Finally, low virulence strains may suggest a higher biofilm formation capacity on polystyrene plates.(AU)

As cepas de ambas as origens foram capazes de formar biofilme. Contudo, a maioria dos exemplares (52,12%) foi classificada como fracamente produtora e mais de 40% das cepas de P. multocida (40,42%) não produziram biofilme. Não foi observada diferença estatística (p>0,05) quanto ao grau de produção de biofilme entre as duas origens de isolamento. 56,52% das cepas analisadas apresentaram os quatro genes (tadB, tadD, tadE e tadG) concomitantemente. O IP médio das cepas classificadas como não produtoras de biofilme apresentou diferença estatística (p˂0,05) em relação ao IP das cepas moderadamente produtoras. Os exemplares classificados como fracamente produtores de biofilme diferiram significativamente (p˂0,05) do grupo de cepas moderadamente produtoras. Os resultados obtidos indicaram que, apesar de as cepas de P. multocida isoladas de casos de cólera aviária e do pulmão de suínos apresentarem capacidade de formar biofilme em superfícies de poliestireno, a adesão ocorreu geralmente de forma fraca. Os genes tadB, tadD, tadE e tadG, pertencentes ao locus tad, não apresentaram associação significativa com a produção de biofilme e nem com a origem de isolamento da cepa. Por fim, observou-se que as cepas de menor patogenicidade apresentaram uma maior capacidade de formação de biofilme em placas de poliestireno.(AU)

RESUMEN

La impactación de los segundos molares inferiores permanentes es una patología con una incidencia del 0.03 or ciento a 0.04 por ciento del total de dientes retenidos, que en la mayoría de los casos debido a una posición impredecible del tercer molar, el resultado final es la exodoncia de ambas piezas dentarias.Dentro de los dispositivos de anclaje temporal, existen dos tipos, los minimplantes y las miniplacas. A través de este caso clínico se demuestra la eficiencia de las miniplacas en la verticalización de los segundos molares inferiores impactados sobre otras medidas terapéuticas debido a que su uso es un método predecible, rápido y seguro que no genera efectos secundarios indeseables. Además, estas miniplacas son colocadas a distancia de las piezas dentarias, por lo que no interfiere en los movimientos dentales.


Mandibular second molar impaction is a pathology with an incidence of 0.03% - 0.04% of the total of the impacted teeth due to animpredictible position of the third molar in most cases. As a consequence, where the final result is dental extraction of both teethThere are two types of temporary skeletal anchorage devices minimplants and miniplates. This case shows the miniplate efficiency in thesecond molar verticalization which is a predictible, fast and safe method without any side effects when compared with other treatments.In addition, miniplantes do not interfere with dental movements because they are placed far enough from the teeth.

RESUMEN

Nowadays pig intensive production systems increase microbial selection pressure favoring spread of respiratory diseases. The bacteria Pasteurella multocida is associated with various respiratory diseases in pigs under farming conditions causing high economic losses. In vitro biofilm formation has been described in P. multocida which role is described in tissue colonization, enhancing resistance to host defenses and antibiotics. The aims of this study were to analyze the occurrence of P. multocida in pig pneumonia and health lung microbiota, and occurrence of tad locus genes in these isolates. Seventy isolates of P. multocida were analyzed which sixty seven were from lungs with lesion and three from healthy lungs. Serotype A occurred mainly in lung lesion (85.71%), in healthy lung, instead, only serotype D was observed. Genes tadA, tadB, tadC, tadD, tadE, tadF and tadG were present in 89.55% isolates from lesion lung. Genes tadA, tadB and tadC were present in all isolates from healthy lungs but, tadD, tadE tadF and tadG were present in 0%, 33.3%, 33,3% and 66.6%, respectively. This work associated tadD, tadE and tadF gene positive isolates of P. multocida to lung pneumonic lesions.


Os atuais sistemas de criação intensiva de suínos aumentam a pressão de seleção microbiana propiciando a disseminação de doenças respiratórias. A bactéria Pasteurella multocida é associada a diversas patologias respiratórias em animais submetidos a esse tipo de criação, causando grandes perdas econômicas. A formação de biofilme foi descrita in vitro em P. multocida e fatores analisados indicaram a facilitação na colonização dos tecidos, aumentando a resistência às defesas do hospedeiro e aos antibióticos. Os objetivos deste trabalho foram analisar a ocorrência de P. multocida em pneumonias de suínos e na microbiota de pulmões sem lesão e a ocorrência dos genes do lócus tad nestes isolados. Foram analisados 70 isolados de P. multocida de pulmões, sendo sessenta e sete com lesão e três sem lesão. Isolados do sorotipo A ocorreram principalmente em pulmões com lesões (85,71%), enquanto em pulmões sem lesão observou-se somente o sorotipo D. Os genes tadA, tadB, tadC, tadD, tadE tadF e tadG estavam presentes em 89,55% dos isolados de pulmões com lesões. Os genes tadA, tadB e tadC estavam presentes em todos os isolados de pulmões sem lesão, porém os genes tadD, tadE, tadF e tadG estavam presentes em 0%, 33,3%, 33,3% e 66,6%, dos isolados sem lesão, respectivamente. Neste trabalho observou-se a associação da ocorrência dos genes tadD, tadE e tadF em isolados de P. multocida e a presença de lesões em pulmões.
